I was fortunate to have Chris Coward as a mentor coach through ICF Philadelphia's Coach's Circle program. She was an excellent mentor. Her experience, capacity to observe and guide us to become even more effective coaches was truly amazing. She is smart, perceptive and insightful, a truly remarkable mentor coach.

Chris's talents as a tuned in leader made the day a pleasurable learning experience for our team. Chris was able to use the activities with the ropes as a metaphor for the internal change that each of us was experiencing with the external change. Some new levels of trust were developed and people risked taking on new roles within the group. I would highly recommend Team Building with Chris.  Her skills as a leader excel when staff need to learn more about themselves individually and in relation to the group.

I found Chris to be flexible and responsive, in meeting our needs for multiple trainings to large cohorts of staff.  In one case, we had over 60 people in our training space.  Chris easily adapted to the space, and interacted with the attendees in ways that kept their interest.  In evaluations, her sense of humor and responsiveness was noted as highlights of her style.   Having our staff trained in these topics was a priority for us this year, and we were glad that Chris was able to meet our needs.

I have found my wellness coaching sessions with Chris to be very helpful in several ways: I feel Chris listens well for content, but she also quickly gets my unique ways of processing decisions and helps me look at how I can make my approach work better for me. She has a good sense of humor, follows up with helpful resources, and is encouraging. I have made great progress in managing my time and reducing my stress.  I really feel I have a terrific ally in Chris!

The coaching I had with Chris proved to be very valuable!  I worked with Chris during a transitional time in my life as I was changing jobs.   Having her coaching as a support during this transition made a huge difference in my adjustment to my new job. Chris coaches with love, honesty, and caring and transfers strength to her clients.  She really made a large impact on the issues I was working through and completely coached my life to fulfillment!  She is amazing, I highly recommend working with Chris.
